Careful if you're expecting fun filled, stress free Pickleball matches at Magna. the regulars are…read morerude and condescending. If your level of play is not up to their expectations you will be called out and/or ignored. God help you if your serve does not comply with the official USA Pickleball Rules. Shots close to the line are discussed and deliberated as if a large trophy and winners cheque is dependant on the call ? You will have less stress and pain at the Dentists office than at Magna !

ARC now also known as SARC (Stronach Aurora Recreation Centre)…read more.. Franc Stronach's castle-like head office by the gold course is just down the street from the area he or his company (Magna) has played a part in building. Aurora Tigers JrA play here. York Simcoe AAA teams play here. And and whole bunch of other teams play here too. Two NHL-size pads. Spectators can watch the game in the cold of the rink -- or -- in the warmth of the hallway (then you'd be positioned right behind the home team's net). Hockey is probably the main sport here. I'm sure the ice is used for other sports and recreational activities too. The center also features a swimming pool with a water slide, a childcare centre, and a baseball diamond outside. Ample parking is available to accomodate all the players, their families, and the spectators. When you drop your kid off before the game and have an hour to kill while he or she is getting dressed, there is a new mall with a bunch of stores and food places just on the other side of Leslie closer to Hw404 to help you kill that time with a sense of purpose. We ("we" == my son and his team LOL) usually play well here. So we like to come here.

Really neat park to bring the family all year long!…read more Lots of free parking around their area for either the splash pad/rink, or to the restaurants on the Main Street. There's a change room/washroom off the building so that's really helpful. The water is constantly moving from one end and drains at the other, it's wading level(can't swim this) so just below knees but way over the ankles, there are kids having the greatest time here, people in swim wear and lounging on the beach chairs along the water way, a large shaded pavilion you could picnic on(bring blanket as there looked to be 2 tables). Definitely will be back with water toys for my toddler, and also as an excuse to visit the Maid's Cottage across the park for butter tarts , or grab lunch and drinks at Brew Hops

I love my town, trying not to be BIAS but it is an amazing community. This place was shut down on…read moreFriday night to host the Raptor's game 4 against the Warriors and they had the game playing on a Jumbotron. No admission fees, free parking - bring your own chairs and enjoy the game with the town of Newmarket! They had a drinking section that was gated off - a bar in the back of the event. They had an ice cream truck and a food truck - Sinfully (I think) and the Newmarket Lion Club had stations set up selling drinks and snacks. It was great to see the community come together and show their support for our beloved Raptors. It was so much fun.

The correct name of the place is "East Gwillimbury Sports Complex". I hope someone updates this…read more The complex is located in Sharon, which is part of East Gwillimbury. It's on the north site of Mt Albert just West of Woodbine. Two NHL-size rinks, one with a bunch of seats, the other with hardly any. In 2012, the complex has undergone a major reno and now feels fresh, bright, and modern. There is snack bar / coffee shop service Country Style coffee. It was really built as a true community centre. Hence there are MPR / meeting / banquet rooms that fit as many as 200 people for a business meeting or a familly party that can be rented for a reasonable amount. There is no free wifi there and cell phone reception is not the best either.

So just tried to use this facility because my kids got off school at 3 however this facility…read moredoesn't allow kids that would play at school together to associate with one another within this facility. Which I find interesting considering pretty confident my tax dollars help pay to allow this facility to function. Also, I'm pretty sure their mandate is to support at risk youth however they did a disservice by not allowing my children to come and making them wait until 6 when older children would be there and I could no long supervise and enjoy family time with them.

I recently visited Newmarket Riverwalk Commons. I parked in a rather long parking lot. The intent…read morewas to visit Eventmrkt. Instead, I drop by a rather quaint area that I need to revisit at a more leisurely pace. Newmarket Riverwalk Commons is the space outside the Newmarket Community Centre & Lions Hall. The area has an outdoor stage. I can see it being the perfect place for Canada Day celebrations and live music when the weather is warm. There was was looked like a wading pool. I'm sure that it'll be a hit when it opens for summertime fun for kids. In the wintertime, this same area becomes a skating rink. I like how cool the space has been carefully curated. It's always being used. You don't have a wading pool that sits idle for more than half the year like you'd expect at a park with one. I am guessing that most events in Newmarket happen here. It's picturesque and beautiful with a good number of parking spots. When I'm not here on a mission to park and grab a bite to eat, I'll check out the area more closely. From the glimpse of it that I got, it's cool and deserves a revisit. (198)
